The Point of It All: The Story of St Kilda Football Club is the 1992 first-edition hardcover that true Saints supporters still hunt down. Jules Feldmann and Russell Holmesby chronicle every dramatic era of the red, white and black, delivering the definitive AFL club history in one 318-page volume.
This copy arrives with its original dust jacket and the proud declaration “1st Edition” on the title page, making it a scarce keepsake for collectors of Australian football memorabilia. A prior owner has personalised the front endpaper—no author signature, but a neat name that anchors the book to its St Kilda story without intruding on the clean text block.
Inside, the pages are crisp, unmarked and free of dog-ears; the binding remains tight and square despite the front red paper having been partly removed. Rated acceptable overall, it’s a reader-friendly copy that still displays nicely on the shelf and slips safely into a Saints gift bag.
Whether you’re filling a gap in your VFL/AFL reference library or searching for the perfect birthday surprise for a die-hard St Kilda fan, this vintage Australian sporting treasure delivers history, pride and a dash of Moorabbin magic.
